Lea Salonga questions DepEd’s module about ‘tattoo’

Broadway star Lea Salonga reacted to a Department of Education module concerning a question about tattoo. Lea shared on her Facebook page a module where students were asked if a tattoo is symbol of what? According to Lea, based on DepEd’s answer key – tattoo is a symbol of ‘being a criminal.’

Lea posted the following on Facebook:

“Okay, someone would need to tell me if this thing is really ok’d by the DepEd. And if so, WHAT KIND OF BS IS THIS???

For the benefit of my friends that don’t speak the language, here’s a rough translation of the encircled part:

A tattoo is a symbol of _________.
A. being a criminal
B. being a slave
C. courage and beauty
D. having low standing in society

According to the DepEd answer key, letter A is the correct answer. (For the love of God…)

I am THISCLOSE to getting a tattoo, if only to prove a point.

Can someone upload a photo of the full, unedited sheet? That whole LETTER A thing covers the rest of it, and we need some context.”
